Opteron Vs G5 (bi 2ghz) it’s the problem which tortures my brain now.

It’s not again a battle mac vs pc but i think is time to test speed in real situation … the speed for create image not the speed of cpu 🙂

the test on this site is very good but with xeon

and psbench is not "real test" just filter (not test the performance for ram gestion when swapping … before work on windows i work whith macOs seems to do a beter job with ram and swapping gestion i don’t know if is real?)

I have see a lot of psbench for photoshop 7.01 but for CS not (i know CS is slow on both platform) I’m a very intensive photoshop user big picture 20 or 30 layer …. big file !

On adobe forum i read very dissatisfied pocessor of opteron (photoshop CS very slow) (www.adobe.com forum photoshop windows search "opteron")

I give you some link about mac and windows performance

ps bench
Here is a side by side comparison.the whole point of PSBench is not "real world usage", nor is it "common operations"
